New sound card and headset suggestions

[karol3]

I have on-board right now and I decided to get a sound cad since I think im missing out playing games on a on-board sound card.


I have P5E deluxe Mobo and only 570gtx so I have free slots.


I was thinking about getting this sound card
Amazon.com: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD Internal Sound Card with THX SB1270: Electronics Amazon.com: Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Titanium HD Internal Sound Card with THX SB1270: Electronics

but i am open to other suggestions since I have been reading creative has terrible drivers and customer support. I am primarily a gamer and use a headset.

I also would like to know what is a great head set for gaming these days I have a budget of around 120$ for a headset. Thx

I doubt you're missing out much.
I've also heard that Creative is not being nice with their drivers.

IMO Asus Xonar Essence STX.

You have the Sonar card? how is it in games?

I don't have one, sound cards are not worth the money IMO.
